I have a TFrameWindow with an assigned menu. wfShrinkToClient causes the
window to shrink smaller than the menu width. (The Window is otherwise
empty).

I can hard code a width and it will work fine. However, when used on a
higher resolution display, part of the menu is chopped off on the right
side. I suspect this is caused by the fixed pixel width and the Menu
using a greater number of pixels to maintain the large font size.

Is there a way to retreive the desired menu width so that I can use this
to resize the window dynamically
